Currently about 95 percent of world population suffer from dental caries or cavities. Three main causes of cavities, namely the bacteria mutans streptococci, saliva, and food scraps.
Leftover food (especially sugar) left in between teeth will stimulate the growth of bacteria mutans streptococci so that the colonies growing on a layer of dental plaque. The bacteria can ferment the sugar on your teeth and produce acid compound which lowers the pH of the mouth to less than 5.5. Acid compound will erode tooth enamel, forming a hole in the tooth surface.
Xylitol is a positive impact on dental health because it can inhibit the growth and metabolism of dental plaque formation by mutans streptococci bacteria. Xylitol is believed to support the process of remineralization in dental caries. This was stated by Prof. Jason Tanzer, head of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine.
Xylitol is considered as a sweetener that is friendly to the teeth. It is so called not only because xylitol prevents tooth decay by replacing the role of ordinary sugar, but also because it can repair minor damage to dental caries. Xylitol can otherwise reduce dental plaque that can not broken down by microorganisms that live in the mouth that cause cavities.
Xylitol is considered as the second greatest discovery of compounds for dental health after fluoride, such as the acclaimed Dr Nigel Carter of the International Dental Health Foundation. Because xylitol is an empty calorie sweetener, mutans streptococci bacteria can not use it as an energy source, and even threaten its survival.
In addition, xylitol can not be fermented so as not to form acidic compounds that cause cavities. Xylitol is keeping the pH of the mouth remained stable at neutral pH (around 7) so as to prevent cavities and stimulates production of saliva which is rich in calcium to speed up the process of re-establishment of a layer of tooth mineral.
